    Four words: I love this restaurant. I grew up eating at Shogun (the same family has owned it since the late eighties), and I have to say I think I love it even more now at 31 than I did as an 8-year-old in awe of the giant fire. I live in Atlanta, but every time my family and I visit my parents in Venice we prioritize eating at Shogun. Over the last week and a half we have eaten there three times! The service is friendly and efficient. Steve, one of the chefs, is a real trip, and adds a dry wit normally found only in comedy clubs. As for the decor, no, it's not the Ritz-Carlton, but it's charming in its own way (my kids love the pond with real fish). Which brings me to my main point: what sets Shogun apart from other hibachi restaurants is, of course, the FOOD. The soup is a simple "shoyu" onion soup (not miso as another reviewer stated), and the green salad comes with a ginger dressing that is just perfect--savory with a hint of wasabi, it avoids the cloying sweetness I find of the dressing at other hibachis. I always order shrimp for my main course: they are succulent, juicy, and pair perfectly with Shogun's delectable mustard-based seafood sauce, again a welcome departure from the overly-sweet white sauce found at most hibachis. Dinner is accompanied by a vegetable medley, beansprouts, and fried rice, which is included for no additional cost. I slather the ginger sauce on pretty much everything--so yummy with hints of orange juice, sesame, garlic, and of course the zesty ginger. Now that I've typed this I am craving Shogun and bummed that I'm now 500 miles away and can't eat there again until Christmas. If you have the chance to go, don't hesitate--go enjoy the deliciousness! I'll try not to be jealous.

    Pretty typical for a Japanese Steak House/Hibachi (where you sit at a table surrounding a stove and the chef cooks right in front of you). I sort of feel that if you've been to one Hibachi, you've been to them all... The chefs make the same jokes/do the same tricks - egg roll, the flaming onion tower, etc. - the food is consistently the same, and good. It's good at Shogun, but not amazing. Everyone in my group got the chicken (teryiaki??), which comes with Miso soup (I actually liked it here, as opposed to at other places), salad (LOVE the ginger dressing), fried rice (I would have preferred brown rice or noodles), veggies and I think bean sprouts. It's a LOT of food, but I ate it all up! The main meal comes with 2 different sauces - one for the meat and one for the veggies, but I mixed them around. We were a bit surprised that both the hostess and our chef were not Japanese!! His name was Juan!

    I've been here once before, and work next door. I loved my experience and the food. The atmosphere was really nice, and I loved the Habatchi! When I leave from work I can always smell the food and it smells so good. Definitely cant wait to go back. One request would be that they become a full bar.

    This place is amazing. The owner and staff are as good as anywhere I have ever been. Hibachi restaurants can seem very similar from one to another, but when you try this ginger dressing or the two sauces that come with the dinner, it is a different ball game. This family run business has been a great addition to Venice, FL for around three decades. I can't wait to get back in this gem of a restaurant!

    A really great place when you want a change from the normal touristy Florida eating establishments in the area. The food is prepared in front of you on a flat top grill and is entertaining to watch. It is slightly expensive but the taste of the food and the environment make it more than worth it. Kids will especially love it.

    We've been going to this place for many years. If you're familiar with Benihana you'll love Shogun, food is actually more flavorful then Benihana. Shogun consistently has excellent food, fast and efficient service ( 45 minutes today from walking in to walking out ) overall I highly recommend it. Very reasonably priced, early bird until 6.

    Definitely a must for everyone in the Sarasota area. The prices are great, the food has a good kick to it and the staff puts on a good show. If you can get Steve, he's the best chef they have. The owner comes out and makes animals for the kids out of carrots. This is our daughter's favorite spot in Florida and we will be customers for life.

    Had a great dinner with my kids and my parents here. Service was great and everyone was happy with all of their choices. We are from the northeast so I guess we might be a little hard to please but shogun is a pretty good contender to hibachi spots around our area and might even surpass! Will definitely return soon!

    One of my favorite restaurants since I was a kid! The food is always phenomenal and perfectly cooked. What makes them different is that they cook their rice and meat/seafood in their sauces. That keeps it moist and flavorful. Even their new chefs always do a great job with the food. They offer an early bird special from 4pm-6pm. I've never left less than thrilled with my experience.

    This place is so delicious. We are from out of town and were craving our hibachi restaurant from back home. We were nervous because we had a lot of picky eaters with us. This restaurant was PERFECT. Everyone left very full and happy. We will definitely be back whenever we are in town. The staff was also extremely friendly.
